The nuts are reverse thread on one side - so you don't get them confused. Chrystler did this in the 60s as well.

 

Ah, that makes perfect sense.

 

...and the 50's, and the 40's. Looking at the GT, I suppose the damage could be alot worse. Looks like a new rear bumper, maybe a few underbody trays, couple of wheels, and pass. rear suspension. Wont be totalled that's for sure.

 

It's a one-piece underbody....

 

Pardon my ignorance, but why are the wheel centers red on one side and blue on the other?

 

I think i remeber reading of another wreck and the rims are like 20k a piece i might be wrong. Also i read that ferrari interviews and chooses who can own an enzo? That wouldn't be logical if your trying to make money correct?

 

Damn, this must have happened very near me. That dealership is Porsche North Scottsdale. Hmm, I wonder how many CGT's are handed out, because I was at this dealership about a month ago and I looked at a CGT identical to this one which was sitting in the showroom with lots of dust on it.

Now I wanna go down there and see if that same car is still in the showroom!

This will probably spark huge controversy, but I think the CGT is flawed... Its widely known that the car is very difficult to control. I think Porsche overlooked how much downforce the car needed... honestly. On TopGear the Stig had a hard time trying to pilot the car around the track, and The Stig is a great driver. The Enzo is an example of practically the same car, but built with its goals more to replicate that of an F1 car. The Enzo has massive downforce, and that is key to holding power down in a corner. Of course, sometimes supercars shouldn't be perfect, and its hard to establish where to draw the line between aesthetics and engineering...

Go ahead and disagree with me and tell me I dont own a car therefore I'm not worthy and bla bla whatever.. That is just my gut feeling.

 

there's this neat thing called reading...try it sometime! just playin

 

Consider the deomographics of the car, very expensive directed to a an older man with money whos suffering a mid life crisis....those are the only ones Ive seen in the cars, the one I saw driving at Pocono went off the track....Sorry pops the old reflexes arent what they used to be. Kinda sad.

 

A dealer's car too.....

 

In the words of Napoleon Dynamite:
"Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..............IDIOT!"

 

You think those rims will fit my 944?

part it out!!

 

Looks like the guy got it sideways and back 3/4-ed it into a wall or a curb. The one rim is shattered (along with the brake rotor - ouch! I've heard those alone are about $4,000 a pop on the CGT). Man! It certainly won't be totaled; looks like the wheels took the bulk of the impact although there IS a little bit of body damage.

I caught you a delicious CGT.
